been a busy sewing bee this month keeping up with sew alongs and the chookshed challenge. plenty of solid scraps were sewn up and half of my drawer was busted. here is the result.

satisfied with the progress but dismayed at the time it took to make just these. i am one with lots of free time and sew nearly every day, but doesn't seem like enough to make better progress. so, have decided to drop the mini 9-patch sew along. with no real project for them, and unable to sell hardly any of my finished things, seemed pointless to create more. i'll finish up the ones i've made and concentrate on my UFOs and a couple of projects on my someday list. i know my one daughter agrees, since she likely will be the one to dispose of my stuff.
wednesday, hump day, sewing day!
You'll find the perfect setting for those mini-9's sooner than you think!
ReplyDeleteI've had the same dilemma, what will my kids do with all my stuff? I've finally decided that I get a lot of joy out of quilting. It makes me so happy to coordinate and cut out fabric. I love sitting at the sewing machine and piecing it all together. I even like to iron. And I feel so good when I finish something, so good! So, my quilting is about "me" not my kids.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will work it out.
ReplyDeleteI hear you on the ufo's and getting them done but those squirrels ..... you did great progress playing with your solids and I quilt to help me deal with the journey that my hubby is now on. So, quilt on and have fun!
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe how many projects you used solids on. I don't buy solids and wouldn't get very far.
ReplyDeleteWow you did great with all your solids...... Just remember to enjoy the process......
